Quote:Very interesting thanks!! A bit confused--
What do you mean make/remove a selection? Which part? And if I should paint the canvas with white, why would I them go into the gaps with the same color they would already have become?

You are not painting on the image, you are painting in the quick-mask which means you are painting in - creating or modifying - a selection.

This might make it more understandable. https://youtu.be/mZaYuTBofgQ duration 2 and a bit minutes

Quote:But I didn't stroke the selection after, instead on a layer beneath the image I used the paint bucket tool. It is the same result as with your stroking method yes?

No, bucket fill will fill the whole selection, while stroke is along the selection. I can see your intention using a fill.
